  • Violet Kingdom offers a nostalgic experience with engaging storytelling and a variety of unique characters, allowing players to choose which characters to strengthen.
  • The combat system is well-balanced and enjoyable, with a good mix of strategic battles and rewarding loot drops from enemies.
  • The game is lengthy, providing a substantial amount of gameplay (around 25-40 hours), which is impressive for an indie title developed by a small team.
  • The early game can feel slow and tedious due to a high number of enemies and a lack of area-of-effect attacks, making some battles feel like a slog.
  • There is a lack of direction in some parts of the game, with no maps or quest logs, which can lead to confusion about where to go next.
  • Some characters may feel underdeveloped or forgettable due to the large roster, and there are minor spelling issues that could detract from the overall experience.

    The story is engaging and features a whimsical journey centered around Princess Violet's adoption, with multiple character storylines that converge into an epic final battle. Players appreciate the intriguing plot twists and the humor found in some NPCs, although the large cast can lead to forgettable characters. While the narrative provides consistent direction, some players note a lack of guidance if they forget where to go next, and the absence of a quest log can be a drawback.

    • “This game features a wonderful story, interesting characters, and beautiful new maps.”
    • “Embark on the whimsical journey of Violet Kingdom, masterfully crafted by Wolfs Moon Studios, where Princess Violet's adoption story takes center stage in a royal symphony of multiple character storylines converging into an epic final battle.”
    • “The story about three kingdoms in a constant state of (soon not-so-)cold war and about one king's adopted daughter and her mysterious origin (Violet) is enjoyable; it even contains a nasty early-game twist and the usual even more sinister threats later on.”
    • “The one downside is that, although the story tells you where to go next consistently, if you don't remember where to go, there is often very little direction.”
    • “Also no journal or quest log.”
    • “The story about three kingdoms in a constant state of (soon not-so-)cold war and about one king's adopted daughter and her mysterious origin (Violet) is enjoyable (it even contains a nasty early-game twist and the usual even more sinister threats later on), mapping and dungeon design are serviceable (though still not completely devoid of barely edited 'sample maps').”

    The game features a grinding system that is generally well-received, with players noting that while extensive grinding isn't necessary, it can enhance the experience, especially for those who enjoy character development and exploration. Players appreciate the availability of effective grinding gear that significantly boosts experience gain, making the process less tedious. Overall, the game caters to fans of grinding, providing tools to streamline the leveling experience.

    • “It took me 27 hours to complete my run, and although I did most of the side quests, I didn't try to do all of them. I also didn't end up leveling up characters extra or grinding much. I had to grind a small amount for the final boss, but the game provides extremely good grinding gear by that point, so it didn't take long to get a character to ~1500% experience per battle.”
    • “But this game is mainly aimed at folks that enjoy grinding up levels through exploring and battles.”
    • “If you are a sucker for good stories, great character development, and grinding, this is the game for you.”

    The humor in the game is characterized by a strong presence of sarcastic wit, particularly through the character Violet, who adds a comedic twist to the narrative by transforming the kingdom into a 'violent kingdom.' Players appreciate her ability to overshadow previous characters, making the humor a standout aspect of the experience.

    • “There is a story too, and some NPCs are quite humorous (especially if you enjoy sarcastic humor).”
    • “Violet, or perhaps 'violent,' humorously dominates the scene, turning this kingdom into a 'violent kingdom' with a touch of hilarity as she effortlessly outshines the forgettable Daniel from the studio's previous venture.”
